Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Sugar Free Gum scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Artificial Flavors (Less Than 2% Of: Natural And Artificial Flavors): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
- Artificial Sweeteners (Sucralose): Synthetic sweeteners are definitive UPF markers.
- Artificial Colors (Red 40): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Chemical Preservatives (Bht): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Sugar Alcohols (Xylitol, Isomalt, Sorbitol): Modified sweeteners common in diet UPF products.
Within Gum & Mints, this product is more processed than about 23% of the 1,470 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
